I Bought Spring…

The weatherman was announcing that winter would be extended in Canadaland several + + + more weeks.

So.

I bought spring.

And the clerk, whose palm I crossed with loonies and toonies, folded it in green tissue.

Wrapped it in cellophane.

Tied it with a yellow ribbon.

And slid it over the counter.

I grabbed spring and ran.

That’s what we Northern Girls do when we’re hanging by our last winter nerve.

C’mon!

You would have done the same.

I know it.

Hump Day. Spring right over it.

Note: These clicks were totally experimental. I wanted to see if I could get the completely wrapped tulips through the cellophane. They remind me ever so much of watercolor, which is one of my favorite art mediums.

Humpy Hap Day to you, too, Elen. A friend mused that she doesn’t know what to wish for as far as the end of the winter – a quick all in one go thaw and flood, or the slow receding of the pile of snow – which means June before we see green. Ah well. Enjoy your day!

Thanks, Diana. I’m glad you enjoyed it. The tulips are just starting to open, and my eyes are glued to them as it continues to flurry outside. We’re going to have some 30+ Fahren days. I’m pretty excited. LOL Yes! Go buy some spring.
